One side of a rectangle is 14 and the perimeter is 44. What is the area?

Question

Geometric area                

Answer 1

A rectangle has four sides, which are paired off by having equal length. Given the side and the Perimeter, you  actually know the length of two sides and can then resolve the other side's length. You can then find the area. 

 

Area will equal 112. 

 

14 * 2 = 28 

44-28 = 16

16/2 = 8

8 * 14 = 112
